turn to its normal operating condition, have
the transmission checked and repaired, if
necessary. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
WARNING
When the high fluid temperature protec-
tion mode or fail-safe operation occurs, ve-
hicle speed may be gradually reduced. The
reduced speed may be lower than other
traffic, which could increase the chance of a
collision. Be especially careful when driving.
If necessary, pull to the side of the road at a
safe place and allow the transmission to re-
turn to normal operation, or have it re-
paired if necessary.
WARNING
∙ Be sure the parking brake is fully releasedbefore driving. Failure to do so can cause
brake failure and lead to an accident.
∙ Do not release the parking brake from outside the vehicle.
∙ Do not use the shift lever in place of the parking brake. When parking, be sure the
parking brake is fully engaged.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm day
can quickly become high enough to cause
a significant risk of injury or death to
people and pets. To engage:
Firmly depress the parking brake.
To release: 1. Firmly apply the foot brake.
2. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) po- sition.
3. Firmly depress the parking brake pedal and it will release.
4. Before driving, be sure the brake warn- ing light goes out.

LDW SYSTEM OPERATION
The LDW system provides a lane departure
warning function when the vehicle is driven at
speeds of approximately 70 km/h (45 mph)
and above and the lane markings are clear.
When the vehicle approaches either the left
or the right side of the traveling lane, a warn-
ing chime will sound and the LDW indicator
light on the instrument panel will blink to alert
the driver.
The warning function will stop when the ve-
hicle returns inside of the lane markers.
The LDW system is not designed to warn
under the following conditions:∙ When you operate the lane change signal and change traveling lanes in the direc-
tion of the signal. (The LDW system will
become operable again approximately
2 seconds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
∙ When the vehicle speed lowers to less than approximately 70 km/h (45 mph).
∙ When the BSI activates an audible warn- ing or when the brakes are automatically
applied by the system.

– When there is a lane closure due toroad repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift or tempo- rary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
– When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire wear, low
tire pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, nonstandard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When you are towing a trailer or other vehicle.
The system may not function properly under
the following conditions:
∙ On roads where there are multiple paral- lel lane markers; lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
∙ On roads where the discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
∙ On roads where there are sharp curves. ∙ On roads where there are sharply con-
trasting objects, such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or lines remain-
ing after road repairs. (The LDW system
could detect these items as lane markers.)
∙ On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
∙ When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with the lane marker.
∙ When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
∙ When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres to the windshield in front of the lane
camera unit.
∙ When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
∙ When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at sun-
rise or sunset.)
∙ When a sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)SYSTEM TEMPORARILY

the traveling lane by applying the brakes to
the left or right wheels individually (for a short
period of time).
The LDP system monitors the lane markers
on the traveling lane using the camera unit
1
located above the inside mirror. When the
camera unit detects that the vehicle is travel-
ing close to either the left or the right of the
traveling lane, the Lane Departure Warning
indicator light on the instrument panel blinks
in orange and a warning chime sounds. When
the LDP system is on, it will automatically
apply the brakes for a short period of time,
using the function of the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system.

Radio frequency statement
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the BSI system could
result in serious injury or death.
∙ The BSI system is not a replacement forproper driving procedure and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with vehicles
or objects. When changing lanes, always
use the side and rear mirrors and turn and
look in the direction you will move to en-
sure it is safe to change lanes. Never rely
solely on the BSI system.
∙ There is a limitation to the detection ca- pability of the radar or the sonar. Not
every moving object or vehicle will be de-
tected. Using the BSI system under some
road, ground, lane marker, traffic or
weather conditions could lead to im-
proper system operation. Always rely on
your own operation to avoid accidents.
∙ The BSI system operates above approxi- mately 60 km/h (37 mph).
The BSI system can help alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when chang-
ing lanes. The BSI system uses a camera
1installed
behind the windshield to monitor the lane
markers of your traveling lane and radar sen-
sors
2installed near the rear bumper to
detect other vehicles in an adjacent lane.
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 60 km/h (37 mph). If the system de-
tects a vehicle in the detection zone and your
vehicle is approaching the lane marker, the
BSI system provides an audible warning
(three times), flashes the BSW indicator light
and slightly applies the brakes for a short
period of time on one side to help return the
vehicle back to the traveling lane.
